Running way too rich, and on 1996 many faults will not set a code. Possible bad coolant temp sensor. Possible leaky injectors or bad fuel pressure regulator.

SOURCE: engine light

Short the test terminal, and read blinking engine light blinks, count them they will be fast and pause and be fast again each code is 2 digits long. This will help me to solve your problem. Thanks

fuel lines inside the intake plhenum may be cracked and leaking inside the plhenum. same thing happened to my 1992.sonoma. they are made of a plastic material and tend to crack right in the bend of these lines.

It may just need a tune up (new plugs/wires/fuel and air filters). On the other hand it may bad fuel to air ratio. Why your check engine light doesn't come on is a little odd. You might want to check your O2 sensors, just my .02.

SOURCE: I have a1997 suburban 5.7 eng. hesitates and backfires on rapid acceleration.

check that your map sensor has direct (unregulated) vacuum. I don't believe that the purge solenoid can create that kind of problem.

First part is idle air control not keeping up the engine rpm at start up . next is the check engine light on ? Any codes would help with this but it is possible the cats are plugged or getting plugged up the other is MAF sensor not reading correctly with oxygen sensor readings and idle air control voltages . I'm afraid I would need more info to fully help you with this

Car idles fine, but sputters, bogs and dies if gas pedal is pressed.

new spark plugs this decade. (a tune up?0
the filter is part of all 60k tuneups. letting it clog wrecks good pumps.
my wild guess, its lack of fuel flow, do to old filter.
or low fuel pressure.
car is identical to a Corolla. so is not unique or rare as some Geo cars are.
the cam belt not changes, invites valve kissing piston tops. BOOM
end of engine. (costs more to fix then worth of car)
the word is bogging, my engine bogs
if if bogs WOT (wide open throttle) and dont catch up < ITS NOT THE TPS. ever.
tps bad causes short bogs, called hesitations.
The map sensor , is what measure air flow and the ECU matches fuel to this air flow.
my guess, is it does that, but fuel pressure is like 15PSI, bad.

High Idle when warmed up. 95 Grand cherokee 4liter. i can let off the gas and the vehicle will accelerate up to 30mph stays at about 1500rpms idling

Hi. Anon.
It sounds like your IACV, ( Idle Air Control Valve), is bad. I would go to the parts store, if you can drive the vehicle and have them hook a scanner up to your vehicle, ( its free) and pull the codes for you. This will give you a better idea of what is happening with your engine. Hope this helps. Let me know.

Would an idle control valve cause a car not to accelerate?

no, idle air control valve is literally to control your idle speed.
what happen when you press on gas? car shakes, RPM goes up, or engine just bogs down?
